Mexican Saul ‘Canelo’ Alvarez and Japan’s Kenichi Ogawa have been suspended for six months following hearings with the Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) after both boxers failed recent doping tests. Alvarez was temporarily suspended by the NSAC after testing positive for banned substance clenbuterol in February and withdrew from his rematch against world middleweight champion Gennady Golovkin, which was scheduled for May 5. In the settlement statement, the NSAC said the former two-weight world champion had co-operated with the investigation and thus his ban had been backdated to the first time he tested positive, meaning he can return to the ring from Aug. 17. “Canelo looks forward to returning to the ring in September for Mexican Independence Day weekend to represent Mexico and boxing in what will be the sport’s biggest event of the year,” Alvarez’s promoters Golden Boy Promotions said in a statement. “He is ready to continue his … [Read more...] about Boxing star Alvarez banned for six months for failed drug tests

(Reuters) – British Olympic sprinter Nigel Levine has been provisionally suspended after for failing a drugs test, UK Athletics said on Wednesday. British media reported in December that Levine had tested positive for the banned asthma drug clenbuterol, which is on the World Anti-Doping Agency’s prohibited list. The 28-year-old has not competed since he broke his pelvis in a serious motorbike crash in January last year, an accident which also involved compatriot James Ellington. “The provisional suspension was issued by UK Anti-Doping and is in accordance with IAAF (International Association of Athletics Federations) Anti-Doping Rules,” UK Athletics said in a statement. “The individual now has the opportunity to respond to the charge against him including the right to a full hearing of the case.” Levine, who specializes in the 400 metres, competed at the 2016 Rio Olympics and was part of the British squad that won relay gold at the 2014 European … [Read more...] about Sprinter Levine suspended after failing drugs test
